* Test case template - Numan

        Suggestions is to define a set of rules for helping on defining the right priority

* Proposal for an unified test suite - Jose
   - Jose presented robot framework
        Open source project
        supports CLI and GUI tests
        No extra packages required into the entity being tested
        Can execute native (Stx specific tests) or external suites (like tempest), bash scripting could also be run into Robot
        Robot uses tags for building test plans: regression, feature, etc
        It generates reports automatically
